Interoperability

• Objective and scope
• Interoperability means a set of functional,
  technical an operational properties required of
  the ATM systems in order to enable its safe,
  seamless and efficient operation
• Interoperability between the different systems,
  their constituents and associated procedures of
  the European ATM network
• Coordinated introduction of new agreed and
  validated concepts of operations or technology

4
Interoperability

• Different tools
• Essential Requirements (ER)
• Implementing Rules (IR)
• Community Specifications (CS)
• Conformity Assessment

5
Interoperability

• Essential requirements
• Seamless operation,
• Safety,
• Civil-military coordination,
• Support of new concepts of operation,
• Environmental constraints,
• Principles governing the logical architecture,
• Principles governing the construction of systems.
• Essential requirements are compulsory,
• reference Annex 2 of the interoperability
  regulation

6
Interoperability

• Implementing rules
• Can be developed by Eurocontrol in conformity
  with the mandate issued by the EC
• Shall determine any specific requirement that
  complements or refine the Essential Requirements,
• Shall also describe the coordinated introduction
  of new, agreed and validated concepts of
  operation or technology,
• Shall specify the conditions of implementation
  (including dates),
• Shall be adopted by the Single Sky Committee
  (SSC), published in the Official Journal and are
  for interoperability also compulsory.

7
Interoperability

• Community Specifications
• Are possible means of compliance and will be
  mandated by the EC being either
• European standards
• (drawn up by European Standardisation
  Organisations CEN/CENELEC/ETSI in cooperation
  with EUROCAE)
• Eurocontrol specifications
• (for operational coordination purposes)
• Systems, procedures and constituents which meet
  Community Specifications are presumed to be
  compliant with mandatory rules

8
Content of Community Specifications

• Depending on the CS development mandate,
  Community Specifications can contain the
  following elements
• Technical part
• Operational part
• Procedural part
• Certification and/or Institutional part
• Maintenance and Operation part
• Implementation guidance material
• Compliance matrix (Annex SA) referring to the
  applicable requirements in terms of (Essential
  Requirements and/or Implementing Rules)

CS work programme Prio 1

• ICB Interoperability Sub Group in proposed CS
  prioritisation and ICB/10 (Feb.06) in
  coordination with ATMSCG agreed that work should
  start on the Prio1 CSs
• Single Sky Committee (Jun.06) requested
  Eurocontrol to develop the first set of CS
  (Initial Flight Plan, OLDI, ADEX-P), Eurocontrol
  accepted the mandate and initial plans have been
  returned to EC in Nov.06
• 98/34 Committee (Jul.06) agreed upon and send out
  mandate M/390 (SWAL, A-CDM, A-SMGCS, FDP
  Interoperability ATC) to ESOs, which CEN ETSI
  accepted
• Single Sky Committee (Sep.06) requested
  Eurocontrol to develop CS on Flexible Use of
  Airspace, Eurocontrol accepted the mandate, work
  started early 2007

12
CS work programme Prio 1

• Initial ATM mandate M/354 has been withdrawn by
  DG ENTR (following written consulation of 98/34
  Committee in Nov.06) aligning now the new DG TREN
  standardisation development process
• SSC (Dec.06) adopted IR on Flight Message
  Transfer Protocol (FMTP) with a new approach to
  have now a CS covering the core technical part,
  Eurocontrol has started to transform the FMTP CS
  part

13
CS work programme Prio 2

• Discussions (ICB Interoperability Sub Group
  ATMSCG) on the Priority 2 Community
  Specifications started in Sep. 2006
• Clarification activities have been initiated on 4
  CSs (AMAN/DMAN, Airport ATS use of MET Data,
  MET Information Exchange) in Dec.06, Study
  results End 2007
• 98/34 Committee (Mar.07) agreed upon and send out
  mandate M/408 (GBAS Cat 1, APV) to ESOs in Apr.07
• 98/34 Committee agreed in written consultation
  process to send out mandate M/405 (Ground ATM
  equipment under the scope of RTTE
  Directive1999/5/EC) to ESOs in Apr.07
• Single Sky Committee (Apr.07) requested
  Eurocontrol to develop CS on AMHS (ATS Message
  Handling System)

14
CS work programme

• At least 14 CSs (Data Link, Surveillance,
  Aeronautical Informantion) are directly linked to
  the development of Implementing Rules.
  Considerable mandate package will be issued
  after IR adoption (from autumn 07 onwards)
• Coordination with the SESAR Masterplan (work
  package T2.6.2 for D3 Standardisation) started in
  Mar.07 and will be continued via the JU SESAR for
  the development phase

15

• Main aims/issues of SES Implementation are
• Reduction of Fragmentation within EATMN
• Establishment of a seamless environment
• Implementation of new technologies

• STANDARDISATION
• Is a key component in SES Interoperability
• Must be an industry driven process
• Needs to be done in a global scale
• Will be linked to the SESAR Masterplan
